The Schrucker Fellowship for the Arts: $20,000 in Grants for Contemporary Tibetan Creatives

Deadline: 14-Oct-2024

The International Campaign for Tibet is pleased to announce the launch of the Schrucker Fellowship for the Arts to support Tibetans working in the fields of contemporary art, creative writing, film and theater.

The fellowship was established to nurture and support this burgeoning creative community, providing Tibetan artists with the resources they need to continue their important work.

Creativity and artistic expression are powerful tools for understanding and navigating complex societal issues in the best of times, but critically necessary for communities under siege. Amidst these complexities, the arts play a crucial role in both safeguarding cultural heritage and expressing contemporary realities.

Funding Information

• The total grant amount in 2024 will be $20,000.
• Projects can receive funding from $500 to $3,000.

Eligibility Criteria

• Tibetans from any country are eligible to apply. Tibetans working for organizations may apply on behalf of the organization, provided that the applicant is central to the implementation of the project’s work. Non-Tibetans are ineligible for grants from this fellowship.
• Applicants will be selected based on the merit of their work, and a demonstrated ability to deliver on stated goals. The fellowship aims to support applicants’ effort to reach new levels in their career, and all are encouraged to apply with current needs and ideas, irrespective of their status as emerging, mid-career, or established in their field of work.
• Please note that this fellowship is not applicable for conferences, workshops, exhibitions, and app development.
